The USS Avenger's appearance in the Hodos system is a random event at the end of the mission. The captain of the Avenger, Brandon Felczer, is named for a former community manager at Star Trek Online's publisher Perfect World Entertainment, who recorded the cameo before leaving the company in 2014. This is the only specific appearance of Avenger to date, although any Avenger-class starship not otherwise labeled will carry the Avenger name and registry number by default.
